Pirelli SottoZero

I bought the tyres in December, and the review is being written in the spring. Winter was as we have seen. There was snow, ice, rain and it also was dry with temperatures like 15 degrees. In all conditions the car's behaviour was predictable. Sensational in deep snow, on ice ABS was switching on but the car kept the driving direction and could be controlled. If you overcharge and feel that one of the axles starts to swerve, it is enough to slow down and the tyres immediately grip back. When you get a feeling of it, you are able to drive safely and much faster than other road users, which is why driving in winter ha been giving me great pleasure. On warm and dry pavement the tyres can hum a bit at more than 55 MPH but it is not bothersome. After 7000 miles the tyres look like new, they only lost their "spikes". Pirelli SottoZero are my first winter tyres, so I have nothing to compare them with, but seeing the behaviour of other cars in the same conditions, I have to admit that most of the cars had no chance with mine. In the previous car I used summer tyres all year round and I know I won't do it again. I won't endanger my family's life any more. Pirelli SottoZero are great tyres which I recommend to everyone!

My assessment is not an assessment, but rather a kind of reaction because I feel dizzy when I read some of the reviews - I only did about 350 miles on them but when I read that on slippery or wet surfaces they're useless, then I thinkt that anyone who writes such a review either is not a driver, or they simply do not have them. AS for now, I have testem them in light conditions, I drive quite aggressively and I can say they are sensational, I had many different tyres but Pirelli SottoZero even at temperatures of 10 degrees above zero, no matter if it's wet or dry, are a hundred times better than Uniroyal Rallye 550, and they are really good... I'll write a new review after the winter, but as for now in the rain and on dry, no matter if it's 1 degree below zero or +10 - Pirelli SottoZero are one of the best. Read more Collapse

I think the purchase of Pirelli SottoZero was a legitimate expense, I was shocked after last season, after fitting new tires in the autumn still in summer-like conditions they behaved better, driving on dry was sensational - in the corners after a slight turn of the wheel the tyres just made the car go in the desired direction - it's also because of sports suspension and a quattro drive. It is also because the tyres are Pirellis. On snow and ice they're also brilliant, quattro accelerates better than brakes in heavier conditions. It's nothing special when braking on ice, but 9it's not a suprise - 1,7 T under the car's hood speaks for itself, However, Pirelli SottoZero still stand out before its competitors, it's very stable at higher speeds - 120 MPH on these winter tyres is nothing uncommon.

I fell in love with these tyres the day I bought them. So far, I have used various winter tyres fom many well-known companies but I won't be offending them... however maybe I should. Pirelli SottoZero are great both on snow and slush and in other conditions, however I recommend them only to people who have powerful and fast cars and at the same time they like to use their power, because the tyres have one quite strange feature - the faster and more aggressive you go, the better they behave; the more you seem to risk, the more they stick to the road - for me, it's sensational. But if someone drives slowly and carefully in winter, it's better they bought something cheaper. Read more Collapse

After fitting the tyres to a 2007 Audi A4, it turned out the vehicle swerves to the right. After a full diagnosis of the authorized Audi service, which claimed that the wheel alignment is correct, the car didn't suffer from an accident (so there's no possibility that something's crooked), service technicians came to the conclusion that the factor which causes the problem are my new "super tyres" which were Pirelli SottoZero. A warranty procedure of the manufacturer is a total disaster. The result of my careful purchase is the financial loss connected to servicing at Audi service, costs of experts and a lot of wasted time. I do not recommend buying these tyres. Read more Collapse

I bought these tyres basing the reviews and I was not disappointed with the purchase. I am delighted. I don't drive a lot (about 25 thousand miles a year) but so far these are the best winter tyres I've been using.Previously, I had Fuldas (total failure), Michelins, Goodyears, but Pirelli SottoZero turned out to be a bullseye. I don't assess the look of the tyres because it's not rather important (at least for me) but it's about how they behave in winter conditions. I drive a mixed route every day (a bit of city driving, a bit of route and a bit of terrain driving), and so far I had no problems. They are excellent on snow. I definitely recommend. Read more Collapse

These tyres are great, and I have nothing to complain about, nothing better has been invenet for powerful cars so far, they are simply great. I snowborad a lot, and due to the fact Pirelli SottoZero were tested in Austrian and Polish mountains, they behave sensationally, when I use them in my city I feel like I'm using summer tyres. Moreover, If someone is interested in motorization, then they know that Pirelli tyres did the best in tests of sports cars like Lamborghini out of all top-brand tyres, and Italian police also uses Pirellis in their chase cars - not only because they look nice. Read more Collapse

Generally speaking, I'm satisfied with the purchase of Pirelli SottoZero tyres. Assessments of behaviour on ice, rolling resistance and driving comfort are very subjective. In comparison with the tyres I previously used on other cars (Debica Frigo and Kleber Winter) I noticed a significant improvement in driving on water and snow - that is what I expected. After two seasons and about 11 000 miles driven I didn't notice any excessive wear, I think it will be safe to do another 16 - 18 thousand miles. I won't buy them again - but only because they'll get replaced with a newer model. Read more Collapse

Pirelli SottoZero is the best winter tyre in the world. If anyone says otherwise, then I do not know why - either they have a broken car or they don't know how to drive or have broken ABS, etc. I'm not a Sunday driver and I can definitely say that other manufacturers should learn from Pirelli. They are simply perfect. My friend also has an Alfa Romeo - a GTA with 250 HP engine and a front-wheel drive. I recommended Pirelli SottoZero and he went crazy about them - he said he can use the car's full power in winter again. Pirelli SottoZero is the tyre number one! Read more Collapse

I often travel abroad and drive in the mountain areas and in the city - and the tyres are amazing! Previously I used Michelin, Goodyear and Nokian tyres, and now I can honestly say I recommendthem. I have been using Pirelli tyres for 3 years now and I've done them over 50 000 miles on them. For summer I have Pirelli P6, for winter I use Pirelli SottoZero. Both models are excellent. So far, no other tyre provided me with such good grip on the road. Driving comfort is also very good. The tyres are quiet, durable and gripo the surface really well! Read more Collapse

Pirelli SottoZero are simply sensational. They are amazing, I had a lot of winter tyres and Pirelli SottoZero beat all the tyres when it comes to performance - excellent on dry, great on wet and sensational on snow! I paid 35 pounds/tyre in the size 195/65R15 - so not much more than for Sava S3... I don't know where do those weird opinions come from - maybe such people think that grip on a dry road in winter is the same as in summer (and then ditch pretty fast) - even a tyre made at NASA won't replace common sense and experience in winter! Read more Collapse

Pirelli SottoZero is almost a perfect tyre. Noise level and rolling resistance is similar to that of summer tyres. I virtually didn't see any increase in fuel consumption when compared to summer tyres. Abrasion is hard for me to assess as for now (too short use period). On snow and ice behaves exemplarily (of course it slips on ice as every tyre does). Quite a serious drawback is its behaviour on wet. I do not have a heavy foot, but when starting on wet, ASR switches on quite often. Read more Collapse

Pirelli SottoZero performs well on dry and on wet, on the snow they are, on the ice it isn't miraculous but it allows to maintain the direction of driving, of course without any speeding. Braking on ice combined with ABS is safe. Those who drive a few seasons on winter tyres know that winter ones are no substitute for common sense and experience. Fuel consumption seems to have increased a bit, but it's a small price for safety! Read more Collapse

My purchase of Pirelli SottoZero was dictated by good reviews of this tyre. The price doesn't reflect the tyre's quality (except for appearance). It behaves the worst on snow (every now and then ABS switches on - a disaster) you fell as if you were driving on ice. Last season I had a Nokian WR and I had no such problems (now I regret that I did not buy Nokians again) - I wanted to improve my winter driving... Read more Collapse

Pirelli SottoZero are sensational tyres :) I have just done over 400 miles on them. The route was generally dry and there was some snow and mud in some places. Also, in one moment there was fresh falling snow and the road was covered with it. Pirelli SottoZero were doing really exemplary, they allowed full control of the car at maximum possible speeds on such roads. I definitely recommend :-) Read more Collapse

I decided to write a review of Pirelli SottoZero, because I was looking for them before the purchase and noticed there aren't many reviews. I managed to do quite a distance on them, even when the roads were covered in snow. The tire behaves very well on snow and in mud. The car is stable and does not slip when starting. I recommend, especially that in my opinion they have a decent price. Read more Collapse

I didn't know which winter tyres I should choose... It's the first time I was forced to buy such large size because of the wheel diameter. But I already know it wasn't a mistake. Pirelli SottoZero grips sensationally on every surface. This is even more important because of the fact my car does not have a 4WD, a powerful front-wheel drive.I can say I am on cloud nine! :-) Read more Collapse

I had a bit of concern about using such a low profile in winter. However, the tyres make up for sensing bumps with their lateral grip and traction even in deep snow. Uncontrolled skidding is possible to control, and controlled one is pure pleasure ;) On the road they behave very well which makes me not want to trade Pirelli SottoZero to any other tyres. Read more Collapse

Pirelli SottoZero are very good tyres - I live in the mountains and have the opportunity to test them in extreme conditions - on snowy and icy road they are wonderful - I can drive into the places where thers have to fit snow chains! On dry they behave like summer tyres! I recommend to everyone - and I know what I'm saying. Read more Collapse

Pirelli SottoZero are very good tyres, I did two winter seasons on them so far. Definitely better than the other branded tyres I've been using so far. I'm surprised because of negative opinions written by some users. I think it's not the fault of the tyre but neglecrted condition of the cars, lack of skills or just malice. Read more Collapse

Oponeo is a good place to find tyres recommended by the car manufacturer Read more Collapse

Very good on wet, mud and snow, poor in icy road. Read more Collapse

Before I bought it I read a tire on OPONEO. All so nicely described in the Nissan 350Z with 300hp, this tire was tragic, always losing traction, snow traction on wet fatal weak many times cast aside. I would not recommend only plus is its strength does not suit up for anything else but to looong of burning and strangely did not want will wear. Read more Collapse

The tire tested on the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S (W212) 585KM. I drove mostly in the mountains in the Czech Republic, Austria and Switzerland. It works really well, but the only caveat is the fact that sometimes it was hard to move the stop on the tarmac of a large snow-covered slope at an altitude of about 2800 meters above sea level Read more Collapse

I 200stu meter driveway to the property and when it snows I have no chance in the tire to get home, I have to assume the chains, and the neighbor with donuts Debica Frigo 2, now running uphill until nice and that is why I do not recommend these tires in the mountainous areas of equal way even give advice. Read more Collapse

Very loud tire mainly at higher speeds. In general tire very low quality which is confirmed on professional balancers (balancing the road test), "stated uneven tire tire radial stiffness" what was the cause of a very high-profile tires and steering wheel vibration coming from the wheels. Read more Collapse

After 35 thousand km and 3 seasons tires were "Bald". It's not enough the more that I drive carefully. During the two extreme braking (got the other car) acquitted Aug. 6, even squealed and wyhamamowałem. On August curves can usliznąć. Hockey is a failure, too poorly kept, too loud Read more Collapse

Very cool tyres. Hockey is known, no tyre can not be 100% adhesion, in my opinion, these are doing very well. The snow is also very good lateral support. I am pleased with them. judging by the amount of remaining tread on these tyres pojezdze at least the next two seasons. Read more Collapse

all in all a bit long for grip in the snow, which offered the Dunlop Winter Sport M2 ... Because of its successor, the M3 completely, totally disappointed me. Almost new tyres for next to nothing I gave to the site looking for something better. M3 - a complete failure! Read more Collapse

The tyres are fantastic. Well exercised in a car weighing 1600 kg with ABS and ESP. They are expensive, but the comfort and peace of mind while driving compensates expense. Low durability is probably the norm with so many benefits. Just something for something. Read more Collapse

very nice looking tyre and probably many advantages. tyre twice to really hurt a small loss in jezdnii. None of these tyres in the tyre services. Wear very rapidly. I would definitely recommend as the best WR Nokian tyres in the same size - they are amazing! Read more Collapse

tyre Sensational! I have various winter tyres and Goodyear, and Continentalki, and Polish Debica but this beats all! For me, and I would recommend Super wszyskim tyres. You can also see that they are durable yet soft for our Polish appropriate conditions. Read more Collapse

In winter conditions, tyre easily accelerate and brake at cornering precision auto carried out in a completely predictable, wet without reservation, keeping surface dry summer better than continental, if I wanted to test the other is only sotto zero 2 Read more Collapse

great tyre but only for a low mileage, very high abrasion think it's a tyre for 20 thousand km later its suitability for winter snow and ice is rapidly declining, problems with driveways and braking on ice and wet snow, this was not the new tyre Read more Collapse

During 2ch three seasons zniszyłem such tyres, all in the same way (crack on the side, not to repair), in the summer I ride a michellinach and never anything like that to me did not happen. Sure wine low profile, but that number is exaggerated. Read more Collapse

Fuld had previously Grawito and there is no comparison in the snow and slush, the ice had not yet ridden and therefore only 3 because I have no opinion. It seems to me that it was some of the best tyres for cars of the middle class. Read more Collapse

On the two cars: Daewoo Legancia and Volvo S60 D5, quieter than niejednych summer (eg P7). Zero: regurgitation, slippage, etc. great pośniegowej under ice, slush safely and zmarźniętym asphalt. I would recommend. Read more Collapse

Fantastic tyres in the snow and slush. Very well kept in curves, braking drastic. Car and driver stability can think about a way to overcome not by any psikusach. I have them already 3 seasons and recommend!. Read more Collapse

tires tend to tolerate the side while driving through the slight unevenness on dry asphalt. now tread 4 mm. when starting on wet asphalt tolerate slightly from side to side. (front wheel drive). Read more Collapse

tyre recommendable .... it is not cheap but the car performed quite sure ... considering that I do not drive it gently rubber gives advice, uses it to A4 in size 225/45/17. I would recommend. Read more Collapse

I do not recommend these tyres for cars with suspension wielowachaczowym, unless you want after one season to buy new tyres. Poząbkowały tank after about 20000 km and suitable for disposal. Read more Collapse

Used in the Mercedes C63 AMG W204 6.3L works perfectly. I use interchangeably with Pirelli PZero. Running is accurate. Donuts are quiet. Some of the best I have used. I would recommend. Read more Collapse

Good tyres for Polish climatic conditions. Provide sufficient comfort, are quiet and pleasantly soft, especially for low-profile summer tyres. I think they are worthy of recommendation. Read more Collapse

After 20 000 thousand. discarded tyres, and noisy poząbkowały mercilessly. I do not recommend these tyres unless someone has too much money and want to throw them away. Read more Collapse

As for me, great tyres. I hope that as I have worn it will be on the market yet, and I will be able to buy them. I recommend all users to trace vehicles Read more Collapse

great for snow. No problem, let alone without chains, drove several times by nieodśniezony Salmopol and Kubalonka. They give a sense of security. Read more Collapse

good tyres on well-maintained roads, which is not in Poland. worst exercise after fresh snowfall really had trouble with the small hill climbs Read more Collapse

Tyre really very good. Given Read review how each product is not suitable for everything, but for cars heavier and more powerful is ideal. Read more Collapse

not really suitable for anything ... fatal ride, fast clash. while the side weirs znasi ... I do not recommend: (this is not a wise choice Read more Collapse

Previously I used Goodyear UG6 and present Pirellki beat them head over heels! Definitely better behavior on dry roads and less attrition Read more Collapse
